The smell detector

I wish wish wish there were something such as a smell detector. I wish there was a smell detector located at the door of every public transport so that whenever smelly people get on the bus/train, the smell detector will emit a shrill alarm screaming "GET OFF GET OFF YOU SMELLY FUCKFACE!!!"

Of course that will not happen.

I searched in trusted wiki and there are no results so i assumed there is no such thing invented yet. Mayb there is only it wasen't use on something so trivial as public transport.

The thing is, smelly people should not take public transport! In my case, the bus. I take the bus to work every morning and when a smelly person sat beside me, it ruined my perfectly fine morning.

Few days ago i missed my bus so i called a cab to the bus station, reached, found my bus which is exactly the same bus which i would have taken if i were to have a lil bit of patience and wait in my usual spot. I sat down, opened my novel and prepare to lost myself in it. Alas, that wasn't the end of my unfortunate monday morning.

As fate would have it, an a nehneh/ bengala (not sure, so i shall call him IT ) DECIDED TO SIT BESIDE ME. OH MY DEAR GOODNESS, HE SMELLS LIKE... LIKE... (loss of adjective to describe the smell!! it is too smelly!!!!). He is the most repulsive smelling person i have ever encounter and the waff of vile smell coming from his body almost suffocated me. I was reluctant to move as the bus is full and i will have to stand until i reach my workplace, which is eons away.

Thus i coughed loudly and cover my nose, sqeeze myself as far away from him as possible, and turn my head completely away from him. I CAN STILL SMELL HIM. Pondering over wheather to sit here and assault my nose or stand in aisle and sway around and let my toes be stepped on, i choose the previous.

Bad came to worse. The "IT" FELL ASLEEP AND HIS HEAD IS TILTING TOWARDS ME.
The smell become almost unbearable and i am getting desperate. The final straw came when HIS HEAD DROP TO MY SHOULDER. AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM CONTAMINATED!!!!

The "IT" being jolted awake from his slumber look at me innocently when i stand up abruptly and said excuse me (polite), get out from my seat and stand in the aisle away from him. I felt a stab of guilt as I think i'm being mean. But his smell is really really unbearably smelly.

I was standing on the aisle and muling over a problem. When people see an old/pregnant/handicapped person they would give up their seat for them right? It has been drilled into us since young that this is the morale we should have.

There is one problem though, what if you think the person looks old but is not sure?? How to deemed the person old enough to give her your seat??? mayb she's a healthy 40+ yr old lady but looks way older than she should, like 60, then when you give her your seat she will look at you with a massive frown, then proceed to yell "YOU SIAO AH??!!! WHY YOU GIVE ME YOUR SEAT??!! I LOOK VERY OLD MEH?? FUCKK YOU LA!!! then continue to mumble something under her breath about youngsters nowaday.

HOW?

I have this dilemma everytime i see quite old but not very old person standing. -.-"

An unintended blog

In reference to the title, i had not intended to blog this trip but as i have nothing better to do.. i might as well find something to do with my time... The trip is a company fam trip back to kk last month. Since i come from KK.. I had thought that it would be quite uneventful and I can act as a tour guide.

Eek.. What an emberassing thought.*grimace*

Turns out this trip is as much a fam trip to them as well as for me. I hadn't known my birthplace as well as I thought i had. And i had initially insisted my dream is to become a tourguide -.-paiseh

From the moment we arrive, we were kept busy for the next 4days 3night by our unofficial tour guide, Mr Yawata-San, Chris's friend. The minute we arrive, we were whisked off to Manukan Island for lunch..

The waters is not as clear as i had hope as according to them there's a huge downpour at kk the previous night. Anyway after lunch we were taken to other 2 island, Mamutik and Sapi for inspection.( i.e any future prospect of having team building etc)

Despite the awesome beach there's no picture of me clad in bikini or otherwise. In fact the four of us looked quite ridiculous as we had juz gotten off our flight, Chris, Kuan and Yawata-San were wearing shirts and pants, i'm wearing tee and cotton slacks.. how's that for beachwear..

After my dinner at home i met them back at town.. they had just finish visiting Ramba, a latin club i have never even heard of, and we met at the famous kk club, The Bed. I have not been there since i gratuated from high school and things have not change. Live bands and rowdy crowds.

Woke up early the next morning and went to 2 resorts for site inspection. I never never thought it would be so tiring. May be due to my lack of sleep or the freaking hot sun happily beating down upon my vulnerable head as we walk around the resort. That moment i feel like the guy in the legendary tale where he has arrows that can shot down the sun... Muahaha.. i totally understand his feelings.

Back to topic, anyways after our tour we went back to our hotel to rest a bit, den got ready for our sunset cruise. We went on this big catamaran, and they had free flow of wine, soft drinks, beer, finger foods etc, and cruise it did. It took 1 hour to get to the point where they stop and the sunset is just right in front of me. By the way it costs like Rm200/pax so if it was not free, i would have never never gone to that trip. Siao ah.

One of the many photos i took when the sun is just going down the horizon.

Took another hour to get back on shore. After dinner i called them and Chris told me they're having dinner at the revolving Atmosphere. Darn, i wish i had followed them. But then i was so tired i just begged off giving some excuses of having just wash my hair when they ask me to join them in Shennigans. I am so weak.

Third and last day, on the evening we went to this river called Western where you can see fireflies, proboscis monkey, crocs etc etc. Went for another sunset, which is quite sien when i had just seen a sunset from the frigging middle of the sea.

Then we proceed to go look for some flying fox and proboscis. When i knew that flying fox is a kind of BATS that fly accross the sky in THOUSANDS, was soooo relieve that we didn't manage to spot any. How horrible if like 10 of them decide to shit while flying accross out boat. Major eewww.

A nature guide in Yawata-San office told us an interesting fact about the proboscis monkey. Apparently there will be 1 dominant male in the group, where it can have like up to 8 wives at 1 time. If that is not shiok enough for him, in order to continuely PLEASE all of it wives, Our Lord Almighty has decided to grant this particular monkey 24/7 ERECTION.

Oh my oh my, what guys who knows of this will do just to die and be reincarneted to as a proboscis monkey. Imagine, you are born dominant, gets as many wives as you like, can have sex 24/7 without going flaccid etc. Isn't this what every guy dreams of?? HAHAHA

On the sour side, the guide told us to look out for the red chili, the terms used to describle the monkey's penis as it is red in color and always standing. Muahaha chili, must be quite small. We didn't get to see any though, as whenever we saw the dominant male it always turns it's back towards us. Shy of it's size perhaps.

Back to hotel, bathe, and started our night activities. First we went to the hotel club, very posh and alot of seemingly rich people miling around, got bored and went to cock and bull until the wee hrs. Went for supper of prawn mee and by 4am, wearily trudge back to hotel.

Random shots of my cozy resort room..

The view from Sutera..


View from Shangri-la Tanjing Aru. Gorgeous blend of mother nature

The dessert tray i found in my room when i came back. The cheesecake is super cheesy lor i tell you.. heaven.. the housekeeping had also turn down my bed, put bedroom slippers beside the bed, and tidy up my messy toilet.

Sigh. I shall become a fu tai tai in the near future. Own my private jet to jet around the world at whim, stay at 6 star resorts, and spend like nobody's business. MUAHAHAHA!

An weekend

Hancock is finally on!!

Excitingly went to Cineplex to watch the movie with my darling.. Will Smith plays the drunken, despise-by-everyone superhero. Sadly, the movie plot was typical of other superhero movies, laced with romance where the superhero had to die/sacrifice for his lover.. well atleast it is better then most superhero movies though.. ie Spiderman 3... but i stil prefer his previous movie I am Legend.

After the movie we went window shopping in the curve, which i have never been before =X.. turns out i didn't miss anything special.. the shops there were brands so commom i can find them in any shopping mall.. after that, dinner time..

There is a stretch of restaurants in between the Curve and Cineleisure and after walking along the whole stretch without finding anything that interests us.. typical of Malaysians, we decided to settle on one restaurant that has the most people lining up.

Bubba Gump Shrimp Restaurant

since 1. there is alot of people eating/waiting = must be somewhat nice

2. The atmosphere inside seems cozy

3. The (size) food looks impressive

Thus, our decision is made up despite the 30 minutes waiting list (turns out to be 40)

Turns out this restaurant is a themed restaurant by the movie Forrest Gump and the place is decorated with memorabilia from the movie.. they also used a very special concept where they have 2 metal plates.. The 1st reads

Which means all is well... and the other 1 shows

Which signals that the table needs service..
No more raising your hand stupidly for attention and being ignored!

How cool is that??!!!


From the pictures there is a partial view of a ping pong bat where the menus are clip on and you can flip them either way.. creative people eh...

My darling~~~

My dish.. I forgot d name.. The fish is barracuda (i think) with lots of shrimps,spicy sauce, and shredded tortillas...

My darling's dish.. which i initially frowned upon as there is no shrimp in it.. looks and taste nice though..

That's it! Our eventful saturday!

Afterthought: Why does the images looks so grainy?
